A Healthy Liver for a Healthy Life

Why is the Liver so important. Well according to Wikipedia read what it says.
The liver is a vital organ present in vertebrates and some other animals. It has a wide range of functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and production of biochemicals necessary for digestion. The liver is necessary for survival; there is currently no way to compensate for the absence of liver function.
This organ plays a major role in metabolism and has a number of functions in the body, including glycogen storage, decomposition of red blood cells, plasma protein synthesis, hormone production, and detoxification. It lies below the diaphragm in the thoracic region of the abdomen. It produces bile, an alkaline compound which aids in digestion, via the emulsification of lipids. It also performs and regulates a wide variety of high-volume biochemical reactions requiring highly specialized tissues, including the synthesis and breakdown of small and complex molecules, many of which are necessary for normal vital functions.
To simply put it the liver is the filter of the body. If the filter is not clean as in the fuel filter of a car the dirt gets into the fuel and therefore causes all kinds of problems. So if the the liver of the body is not kept in good shape then toxins and poisons can get into the bloodstream and cause all kinds of problems.
Do yourself a favour and make sure you are eating foods that are good anti-oxidants for the liver. Include blackberries, blueberries, black grapes, pomegranite, rasberries, strawberries and watermelon to name a few. I personally love the ACAI Berry from Brazil as being one of the best anti-oxidants on the planet.
Remember whenever you drink too much alcohol or coffee you are harming the liver. That is why it is so important to bring it back into good shape by eating foods and drinking juices that are full of antioxidants, bioflavinoids and phytonutrients.
